As 'Friends of the North York Moors', NYMA is a charity working to safeguard the landscapes, biodiversity and cultural heritage of the Moors and surrounding areas. We’ll be writing more about NYMA in the next Moorsbuzz, but in the meantime — thank you NYMA for your help over the years. www.nyma.org.uk Donate tickets: a correction In the last edition of Moorsbuzz we thanked you for supporting us by buying our innovative ’Donate Tickets.’ We said that in 2019 they raised over a thousand pounds. Well, we were wrong. In checking the books it appears that you donated over £2200. So thank you. (But it means that we have a higher target to beat this year!) Just to clarify, if you are an East Yorkshire passenger and buy one of their ‘Go Anywhere’ tickets (for instance, on the 128 or Moors Explorer ME1), they are also accepted on Moorsbus. ‘Moors Rover’ tickets are issued and accepted on the East Yorkshire 128 between Helmsley and Thornton le Dale, as well as the Moors Explorer between Norton (Malton) and Danby. Sharing the views we enjoy Each year, our passengers take thousands of pictures of their days out: landscapes, flowers, fellow travellers, villages, and even buses! If you’re happy to share some with us, it helps us create a library of photographs we can use in our timetables and on our website. We wouldn’t use them in any other way, but we really would like to extend our horizons. You could email them to us at [email protected]We would also welcome pictures from our history. Remember, Moorsbus started over 40 years ago, but we have hardly any photos of those early days. Have you got any old pictures of our Moorsbus heritage? Main picture: Moorsbus M12 ready to leave Sutton Bank ‘interchange’ for Danby on 22nd July 2002. Inset: Moorsbus M4 in August 2021 The bus shelter was built in 1997 as part of a government-funded transport plan for the North York Moors encouraging visitors to leave the car behind and ‘Park & Ride.’
